Volunteer Opportunities

The Center for Service-Learning develops relationships between Shoreline Community
College and nonprofit organizations in the community that rely on volunteers to run
their programs. By connecting students with these organizations, we're creating a
reciprocal relationship: organizations receive essential support for their services
and students gain professional experience and hands-on education.

Where to Volunteer:

experience and did not see a position of interest under "Current Service Opportunities,"
